Savannah by Nshama: Entry from AED 809K in Town Square
10% down to enter an apartment project that runs from sub-AED 1M at one end to AED 1.8M at the other. For a Dubai off-plan buy, that entry bar is low. It means a buyer can secure a unit with AED 80,900 upfront while keeping the larger payments staged across the construction period.
Nshama developed Savannah within Town Square, a master-planned community in southern Dubai. Savannah is a sub-development within that neighborhood rather than a standalone building. Buyers are entering an address that already has a community around it, which matters both for daily life and for the investment case.
What AED 809K to AED 1.8M Actually Means
The spread between the floor and ceiling is over AED 991,000, which is wide. Both ends share the same building, the same amenities, and the same April 2027 handover date. The difference is configuration and floor area, not a tiered quality gap.
At AED 809,000, the buyer is looking at compact units: a studio or one-bedroom suited to a single professional or a buy-to-let investor targeting manageable entry cost. At AED 1,800,000, it is a family buyer stepping into a two or three-bedroom layout. The value at the upper end comes from the combination of the apartment itself and the community context it sits within.
For an investor at the lower end, the relevant question is whether rental demand in Town Square justifies an off-plan hold through to April 2027. For the family end-user at the upper end, the community infrastructure surrounding the project is already established.
Town Square: What the Location Means in Practice
Town Square sits in the Dubailand corridor, off Al Qudra Road. Downtown Dubai is roughly 30 to 35 minutes by car in normal traffic. Dubai International Airport is at a comparable distance, and Al Qudra Road connects directly to Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road, the main artery for Business Bay, DIFC, and the rest of the southern commercial spine.
This is a suburban address. For buyers who commute into central Dubai, a 30-minute drive is a reasonable trade-off for the space and community format that Town Square provides at this price level. For investors, the renter profile here is mid-market: families and professionals who prioritize residential scale and a self-contained community over proximity to the city core. Town Square's master community structure supports that positioning.

The indoor swimming pool provides year-round usability in Dubai's climate, where outdoor pools sit idle for extended periods in summer. The gymnasium and landscaped gardens make up a practical day-to-day set. The children's play area paired with on-site restaurant access points clearly at families as the primary resident: people who want daily convenience within the building and the ability to manage kids' time without leaving the community.
Handover in April 2027
Construction started in July 2024. Expected completion is April 2027, roughly 10 months from now. With approximately 23 months of construction already completed, buyers entering now are joining a project that is well into its build cycle rather than at the beginning. The remaining window is short, and the construction-period payment of 50% of the purchase price runs through to that handover date.
Getting In for 10%
| Stage | Payment |
|---|---|
| Down payment | 10% |
| During construction | 50% |
| On handover | 40% |
The 10% down payment is the defining feature of this payment structure. It limits initial outlay to AED 80,900 to AED 180,000 depending on unit price, leaving the bulk of the financial commitment to the construction phase. The 50% during construction then stages payments across the remaining build period, with 40% due at handover in April 2027.
